My practice is concerned with what the body reveals when the face is removed from the frame. A hand, photographed at scale until every crease, scar, and mark resists the immediacy a face demands — it does not perform, does not address the viewer, does not offer resolution. There is a transgression in the act itself: we are not used to looking this closely at someone's hands, as it is quite intimate or might be seen as rude. In refusal of that convention, I strip hands out of context. The hand is displaced from the body to the object. What remains is evidence rather than expression offered without instruction.
